Project: Using PinePhone as my daily driver smartphone, running Linux fulfilling Goal:Technology.
(!) All the current OS images are crashing (apart from Megous' kernel on Arch Linux ARM) on my PinePhone.
It seems they have DRAM frequency set way too high: 624 MHz instead of 552 MHz. See this thread.
Contents
Hardware Setup
- PinePhone
- Initial testing is done with PinePhone 1.1.
- Once PinePhone 1.2 becomes available, this will be the daily driven device.
- Battery
- Factory-provided at first
- Replaceable with any Samsung J7 form-factor battery[1]
- TODO: Find out more and look for a shop selling this (once needed)
- Screen protector
- Factory-provided at first
- Replacement source
- Pine64 store? Currently doesn't seem to sell it.
- Supposedly some iPhone screen protector is usable
- TODO: Find out more and look for a shop selling this (once needed)
- Protective case
- TODO: Temporary solution: similar form factor of other devices on the market?
- TODO: Source from Pine64 store
Software Wishlist
- Solid base Linux distribution
- lightweight, customizable
- community-supported with continuous updates
- large package repository
- One day of battery life
- ability to enter power-saving mode and leave it in a matter of seconds of user request
- automatic power-saving after a period of inactivity
- Convenient and efficient UI - common actions need to be easy to achieve
- switching between the apps
- turning the screen on and off
- ability to kill apps
- Support for essential apps & workflows
- Support for non-essential apps & workflows
- RSS client
- OTP generator
- Ebook reader
- Weather forecast
- Maps, navigation
- Calls & Texts
Software Setup
- OS located on the internal eMMC flash storage (to make some use of it, plus it is faster than the SD card)
- accessible as an external storage from a computer via Jumpdrive which may be flashed to a tiny SD Card (128 MB in my case)
- maintenance or distro-hopping can still be done by plugging in an SD Card with a system installed (since it takes precedence over the eMMC storage)
- non-essential data (photos, videos, etc.) on an SD Card with larger capacity (currently 32 GB Samsung EVO Plus)
Components
- postmarketOS with sxmo
- System packages: networkmanager, termite, termite-terminfo, bluez
- App packages: vim, firefox, galculator, thunderbird, gajim, audacious, audacious-plugins
Setup

TODOs
